The ity Fathers Refuse to Confirm the Mayor's Appointments—Com- mencement Exercises at the Institute for the Blind. A Wholesale Trousers Thief. De Wirr, Neb., May 1.—[Special Tele gram to the Bre. esterday afternoon, when the train arrived from the south, there alighted a sieck looking young man, about twenty-cight years of age, light complexion and weighing about one hundrea and fifty pounds, carrying in'his hand a small satchel on which was a bundle strapped containing three or four pairs of pants, Over his shoulder hie carried an overcoat loosely, He at once proceeded to offer the contents of his bundle for sale at prices much below the wholesale cost of such articles. Pants worth #6 to $5ho sold for §1.50. His plan was “ o dispose of his goods to anybody and eve body on the street for whatever he could get, t the clothing stores he visited he claimed o wanted to buy pants, and at the store of G. A. Hunt he succeeded in getting a #8 pair under his overcoat while the clerk's back was turned. Ina short time the garment 'was missed and steps were at once taken to ind it. The discovery was made, but it was n the possession of a saioonkeeper, who had id the stranger seventy-five cents and a ttlo of’ whisky for them. Mr. Hunt had him arrested atonce for petit larceny, and at his trial to-day he gave his name as ohn Kelly, of St. Joseph, Mo., and claimed 0 got the pants from a traveling man. The ustice thought the statement a little “washy,” and as he could not give u satisfac- fory account of the transaction he fined him £12 and costs and ten days in the county jail. Ehc bundle he brought with him no doubt he ad stolen from merchants along the line. Mayor and Council in Conflict. HasriNgs, Neb, May 1.—[Special to the Bee.]—The new mayor and city council of Hastings have come to a doad-lock on the appointment of a street commissioner for the ensuing yoar. The council wants to retain office Burton, the present incumbent, _Ehno Miyor Yocum insists upon having & hange. At a spocial meeting last night a pumber of new appointments for various of- fices were coufirmed, and William Breed for Btroct commissioner rejected. The mayor thereupon declarea that under the provisions of law the office was_vacant, because Bur- ton’s time had expired, and during the inter- lm caused by the meglect and delay in hoosing a successor, he would take it upon {mself to a} polnt William Breed to exorcise he duties u the office. This gives an inter- Eotlmz phase to the situation and the question r solution now is: Can this bet Fruit Not Injured. HasTiNGs, Neb.,, May 1.—[Special to the Ber.]—The recent storm in this region was finprecedented at this seazon of the year for he extreme cold that prevailed during the e. The tender young sprouts of troes Bnd shrubbery were enveloped in a thick coating of ice. This was at first rogarded as death blow to all blossoming fruit, espec- Ly to early plums, currants and gooseber- es. The most welcome and agreeablo chan, vesterday to warm and pleasant veather has ufforded oportunity to oxaming he fruit blossoms, and form an estimate of khe probable damage incurred. It is asserted oxperienced and well-informed persons ghat there is no cause for serious alarm, Ppples are not far enough advanced to be njured, and the damage to other fruits will ‘be nominal only.

Agent Coburn Explains McCook, Neb., April 2 To the Editor of the Bee: Your Washington correspondence 3th of March represents the acting commissioner of the gencral land office as stating that I had boen removed from my position as special agent, for the reason that it was nocessary or desirable to reduce the pumber of special agents, and that from a table of reports it was shown that during the received from that respect. The actiug éither knew, or _should commissioner have known, that somo new agents had just been appointed at the tume of the intérviow, Bil Bonoe. L statement was disingenuous. Applyiug the rule of falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus, 1t would be unnccessary to go farther in auswer to his statements. Yet any man in his senses would under- stand that the number of reports is no criterion of an agent's efficiency, particularly where he was engaged most of the time on hearings, as [ have been for the past nine onths. These tables are prepaved by the of a division who illustrates the civil ryice reform ideas of the late secretary of @ interior. Superannuated and entirely morant of land business, he was impor snw the bureau and at once placed in charge of a division over the heads of efiicient men. Enowing nothing of the business of the - oluu he naturally becomes ambitious to be portance as & dispenser of patronage, &n e bkt wiilch [anelss tha valus ©of 80 napy humble servants of the govern. ment. il quile evidont that he is a violent Luan snd that may in S0 WEASUre ac unt for the fact thatouly two agents out of about scventy date back to the Jast al ministration, as T am informod. 1t was known to you, Mr. Editor, that the sction of the department was preceded by a combined movement. of the confederated land ves, acting through one who has bought 18 way into bigh publie position, "1t cawe to w1y knowledgo in various pasts of the stut and it was also notorious that a scavenger process of attempting to rake up some charges that wmm‘l stand fire, was adopted, the honorable secretary having refused to re- move without them. So far as I am advised, none were obtained. It was also notorious that a prominent land grabber from 1llinojs was in_Washington goading on the Nebraska chief, heretofore referred to. 1n view of this combination and of the further fact that the land office had been oleven years in _ascertaining it, the statement in effoct that 1 had been inactive or indolent, secrs a little absurd. The language of the (noy) commissioner, suggests Talloyrand’s ~ motto, that “Language was given us to con- ceal our thoughts”” How noble the conduct of his immediate pedecessor, Sparks, of adamantine courage, who refused to per- mit a subordinate to suffer harm at tho hands of malefactors, for obeying his instruc- »ns, and who chose to go into retirement rather than yield his convictionsof duty. The country needs more men cast in the same mould. But the nocessitics of the leagned and banded rings require s man_of putty, who can be moulded like clay by their wily attor- neys.

Peter J. Carvigan, South Omaha. I Mury . Couroy, Irvington, Neb., EIGHT INNINGS WERE ENOUGH Minneapolis Didn't Care About Fin- ishing the Game. OMAHA WAS TOO FAR AHEAD. The Home Boys Prove That They Are Not Weak at the Bat, and Riopf's Delivery Hit Very Hard. Proved Themselves Sluggers. The Omaha and Minneapolis teams played their sccond game yesterday afternoon, which resulted as the first in a signal victory for the home club. The weather was ex- corably raw and disngreeable, and the at- tendance, a8 a consequence, small. How- ever, those who did brave the chilly winds were amply repaid, as the game, 80 far as Omaha was concerned, was highly enjoyable. Both teams acquitted themselves with much credit in the field, while the Omakias made a great record for themselves with the stick. Soventeen hits with a total of thirty bases will do for one day, and a cold day at that O'Connell did himself proud, pounding Mr, Klopf for a two-baggor, two three-baggers and a home run. Miller and Burdick ulso made a three-bagger cach, and every man hit the ball safe one or more times, with the excep- tion of Wilson. The lattér, thougl, fully made up for his failure to get on to the Ger- man twirler by his brilliant work behind the bat. But in a gamo as perfoct as this one was it would be invidious to particularize. There was but one error made, and that_was an excusable one, being & fumble of a hard hit grounder by Doran. It must not be thought that because the Omahas ran up their score to double numbers _that the vis- itors played a poor game, for they did not. The fact that the Omahds made ten earnod runs is proof that it was not lame work on “their part, but a tremendous batting achieve- ment on the part of the local piayers. 1In the eighth Mr. Klopf fairly lost his breath. It was biff, smash, bang, until every marooned hosed lad had had a smack at him, and when the smoke rolled by four runs loomed up on the score board. At the end of this inning, the Minneapolis being hopelessly in the r and the audience executing a_war dance in the grand stand to keep from froezing, Man- ager Gooding suggested that the gamo ter minate right there, and _Manager Selee_ac- quicscing, Fessenden called the game.

To the question, “Will the convention make expres- sion favorable to the interests of any candi- date for president?” he replied, *“No, sir; we have nothing to do witly candidates in'that sensc.”” The chairman stated that he had a from Senator Harrison, of Indiana, which places him decidedly and squarely in line with anti-saloon republicans.

HIS BOOM AMONG THE BADGERS. Lengthy Resolutions Endorsing the Message and Denouncing the Pro- tective System—The Anti-Sa- loon Republican Meeting. Cleveland's Tariff Ideas Endorsed. Manisox, Wis;, May 1.—The democratic state convention was called to order at noon by Chairman Asher, of the state central com- mitteo. The various committeos were ap- pointed, when the convention took a recess. Upon reassembling and when the several committecs had reported, the committeo on rosolutions reported the following, which was adopted: The democrats of Wisconsin in convention assenibled heartily and fully endorse the wise and considerate and patriotic course of Grover Cleyeland as president of the United States. Wo take pride in the manly courage with which ho has faced the hosts of protected monopoly and the advo- cated reduction of war tarift taxes now retained only upon the every day necessitics of the farmer, artisan and 1aborer, having long since been removed from the incomes and bank checks of tho rich. We denounce the systom of tariff taxes that, whilst it creatos a dangerous_annual surplus in the national treasury of $155,000,000, at the same time indirectly taxes the producers of the west for the benefit of the protected nine dollars for every dollar that goes into the trensury. We declare that the burden of taxation should rest upon those who use the luxuries rather than who use only the nocessaries of lifo; that taxation should be limited to the requirements of the government; that a greater tax is robbery under the forms of law. We, therefore, demand that taxation be limited to the nceds of the government, cconomically administered, and be levied on the luxurics rather than on the necessarios of life, and that taxation be reduced in strict conforinity to the principles laid down by President Cleveland in his message to the fiftieth congress. Joseph M. Morrow, of Monroe, was clected pormanent chairman, and Oscar A. Poter, of Milwaukee, secretary. The chairman’s reference to Grover Cleveland recoived most deafening applause, as did the reading of the resolutions which were adopted by a standing vote.
